(One, two)

[Verse 1]

Stop the clocks, it's amazing

You should see the way the light dances off your hair

A million colours of hazel, golden, and red

Saturday morning is fading

The sun's reflected by the coffee in your hand

My eyes are caught in your gaze all over again

[Pre-Chorus]

We were love-drunk, waiting on a miracle

Tryna find ourselves in the winter snow

So alone in love like the world had disappeared

Oh, I won't be silent and I won't let go

I will hold on tighter 'til the afterglow

And we'll burn so bright 'til the darkness softly clears

[Chorus]

Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

[Verse 2]

The weather outside's changing

The leaves are buried under six inches of white

The radio is playing Iron & Wine

This is a new dimension

This is a level where we're losing track of time

I'm holding nothing against it, except you and I

[Pre-Chorus]

We were love-drunk, waiting on a miracle

Tryna find ourselves in the winter snow

So alone in love like the world had disappeared

Oh, I won't be silent and I won't let go

I will hold on tighter 'til the afterglow

And we'll burn so bright 'til the darkness softly clears

[Chorus]

Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow

Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow
